Richard M Roberts I have a spare print of BLACK OXFORDS I might let you have for $300. Unless you're joking, is that the average price for a 16mm silent comedy two-reeler print? Pasquale I'm joking, but in the case of a reasonably rare print, and two nutjobs on ebay determined to get it, you used t...

Up to seven five-star reviews so far, and number seven is from our own Ed Watz!

Hey, how did I end up doing more the rest of the gang? Lazy Pikers! RICHARD M ROBERTS (and if I'd have known GALLOPING BUNGALOWS was going wanting, I'd have done one for that too, it's one of the best Sennetts Del Lord ever did) Hello Mr Roberts, I am finally posting :) I would be interested in any...
